It wasn't all that long ago that the Subsiduary Business's were being applauded for their contribution to profit when the core business's were being ravaged by Iraq and SARs. There was even a positive (ever so small) that the intent was to grow the subsiduaries so they could cushion the core in the event of any other catastrophies. Sounds as though that plan has been ditched. I feel for the subsiduary business's and especially the people that work in them. These are not the front line people in their glitzy Morrisy uniforms these are the boiler room attendants in dust coats two sizes too small who live and breath Qantas but are neither recognised by the likes of Geoffooo or the glamor queens. These are the sacrificial lambs who front day in day out for not so much as a thankyou. To you guys I take my hat off. You are the true meaning of the Australian Spirit rather than Spirit of Australia
